Part fascinating fact, part dazzIing fiction, Zoot Suit is the blistering film adaptation of pIaywright Luis Valdez' criticalIy accIaimed stage drama based on the "zoot suit riots" that rocked 1940s Los Angeles.
When barrio leader Henry Reyna and a group of his friends are unjustly convicted on circumstantiaI evidence and sent to San Quentin, activist lawyers AIice Bloomfield and George Shearer fight the blatant racially motivated miscarriage of justice to win Henry and his friends their freedom.
Featuring Edward James OImos in the role that catapuIted him to stardom, Zoot Suit is a scorchingIy searing and seductiveIy provocative work that skillfulIy blends action, drama, romance and music! |
